How to apply OSS note and how to use it?--thanks

Hi, morning all,
I want to know how to apply OSS notes and how to use it, pls help me.
Thanks.

Applying OSS note is a critical activity in the system. Usually this task is carried out by the basis, as they maintain the system and the notes, support packs, etc.
A OSS note has potential to impact the system in several ways. So it is better to work with the basis if  you need to apply a OSS note to be applied.
Transaction code is Snotes. But pl dont attempt to apply by yourself.
Reg your other question as how to use the OSS note, there is nothing like using aOSS note. Just apply and depending on what the notes do, it may change the config, or download a program or something.

  • No change request created when applying OSS Note

    Hi,
    I have applied around 3 OSS Notes to my ECC 5.0 system. I got a promt for the change request creation. I have created a new change request and then saved it.
    But when I applied the next 2 OSS Notes, i didn't get any prompt to create or select the existing request.
    How can I create a change request for this application of OSS Notes and how to transport them to quality if i dont have a request number?
    Thanks
    Vijay

    Hi Vijay,
    I think this is normal if the objects being changed by the OSS Note are already held in an earlier change request owned by you (or others) and has not been released.
    Use transaction SE03 to search for the objects being changed by the OSS Notes (you will get object name in the note itself) and find out which change request is holding the object.
    Once you find the change request either unlock it or release it (depending on your company process/policies) and then re-implement the OSS Note.
    Hope that helps.
    Regards,
    Siddhesh

  • OSS notes and service packs

    Hi,
    Can anyone elaborate me the difference between OSS1 transaction and SNOTE transaction in relation with application of OSS notes ?
    Also, what is the difference between SAP service pack and OSS notes ?
    Are SAP service pack similar to windows service packs ?
    Whose job is it to apply OSS notes and service packs ?
    Regards,
    Tushar.

    A service pack is generally a collection of the (release dependent) OSS notes that have been created since the last pack.
    If you have done custom development on an SAP object, that development will likely be lost if an OSS note modifies it. You will have an opportunity to review the changes using transaction SPAM when service packs are applied.

  • How can we apply OSS notes in BW or BI.

    Dear Friends , how are you all.
    Could anyone please tell the process about How can we apply OSS notes in BW or BI.
    What is the difference between LO extractors and FI extractors.
    It would be helpful to me.
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi,
    Using T Code SNOTE we can apply the OSS notes.
    Also
    OSS is Online support system runs by SAP to support the customers.
    You can access this by entering OSS1 transaction or visit Service.SAP.Com and access it by providing the user name and password.
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/fe8dbb80-0c01-0010-fe84-b76d0d07db34
    SAP Notes
    IN BW T.Code SNOTE, here you can see all the notes which has been applied.. also u can apply a new note in this T.Code.
    http://service.sap.com/notes
    Whenever there is a short dump, in section 'How to correct the error' keywords are given so that you can search relevant OSS
    Notes.
    Best way is to search with the Note Number if you know one. Else, you can search with restriction by giving proper version,
    application area, priority, release status etc along with keywords.

    Check the below point:
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE
    Implementing OSS Notes Using the new Transaction Code SNOTE
    In this document we will see how to implement an OSS note using the SNOTE
    transaction code.
    The transaction code SNOTE is used to implement OSS Notes. With the SNOTE
    transaction, it is no longer necessary to register ABAP objects such as report function
    modules etc. manually. But data dictionary objects such as screens, tables need to
    be modified manually by registering them in OSS system.
    In order to use the transaction code SNOTE, the relevant transport which implement
    this transaction in the system need to be transported. Please refer to the SNOTE
    guide available at http://service.sap.com
    Execute the Transaction code SNOTE
    One of the first steps to do is to upload the note into your system.
    Follow Goto à SAP Note Download
    You can also use the SAP Note upload if the note has been saved in your local
    machine
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE
    http://www.sappoint.com
    In the following box that you get, enter the note number. We will take Note 388732
    as an example
    and click on the Execute icon. You will get the note number displayed in the list of the
    OSS notes
    In the above screen, we have two notes listed.
    By double clicking on or on the note number you can display the OSS note.
    You can also check the Status of the note by clicking on the Check SAP Note icon
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE
    http://www.sappoint.com
    Select the note and click on Check SAP Note icon. In this case we have selected
    note number 388732.
    If the note is not implemented as part of some support pack as per the support pack
    level of your system, you should get the following pop up box.
    Select the note number that you want to implement and goto Edit à Select/deselect
    node
    To implement the OSS note click on the Implement OSS Note icon
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE
    http://www.sappoint.com
    You will get a confirmation box like the following
    Click on Yes

    The system will display the objects that are going to be modified during the process
    of note application.
    In our case, Report LTXW0F10 and RTXWCHK1 are going to be modified.
    Click on the Continue icon
    For while the system will show the note in IN PROCESS status
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE

    After a while, select the note and click on the Check SAP Note icon on the application
    toolbar
    But still the Status of the note is displayed under In Process category.
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE
    http://www.sappoint.com
    You can also check the status of the note by checking the meaning of the icon next
    to the note number.
    To check the legend, follow Utilities à Color Legend
    As you can see from the legends box, means Implemented Correctly.
    Since the note is implemented, you can change the status of the note from In
    Process to Completed manually.
    SAP R/3 Document : Using Transaction SNOTE
    http://www.sappoint.com
    Select the note and click on the Set Processing Status icon

    implementation by clicking on the Logs icon on the application toolbar. The log
    information will contain all the steps that were performed from the point of
    downloading the note will its implementation is completed.
    ü If there are any pre-requisite notes for the note that is being applied, the
    system will prompt you to load those notes too into the system. Depending on
    their applicability to your system, the system will prompt you accordingly to
    apply the pre-requisite notes.
    ü You can register the manually implemented SAP notes by executing the report
    SCWN_REGISTER_NOTES.
    ü SNOTE cannot change or modify data dictionary objects. If there is a note
    which requires changes to be made to a structure or a screen then SNOTE will
    not help. Such objects have to be registered and modified manually.

    SAP Notes give you instructions on how to remove known errors from SAP Systems. They include a description of the symptoms, the cause of the error, and the SAP Release and Support Package level in which the error occurs.
    Depending on the type of error, an SAP Note may also include:

    • Links to Support Packages that solve the problem
    You can access SAP Notes both from the SAP Service Marketplace and SAPNet - R/3 Frontend.

  • Cursor arrow gone from solid black to having white lines go through it and trackpad is not working properly in mail and adobe acrobat - anyone know how this could have happened and how to solve it?

    Can anyone help me?  Concerned that I may have some kind of malware.  My cursor arrow and trackpad are behaving strangely,  The cursor used to be a solid black arrow but now seems to have horizontal white lines running through it.  The trackpad does not function normally either.  For example, when I use my trackpad to scroll up and down in mail  it sometimes works and sometimes does not.  In adobe acrobat it sometimes does not work.  In facebook, the cursor does not line up behind the menu keys as it should.
    Any one know how this might have happened and how I can stop it?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
